#Naturalhair #Naturalhaircare How I Refresh And Stretch A Three Day Old Braid Out Ft. Hcsoeurs

Hey guys welcome back to my channel, my name is lanaja Taylor and today, I'm just coming to you guys with a quick video on how I refresh a old braid out and how I re-store the moisture in my hair, refresh the braid out and how I stretch My hair, I use the banding method to stretch my hair, so I will show you that at the end of the video, so without further Ado, let's get right into it. Just a disclaimer, please excuse the toothbrush in the film I did not know. It was like that so yeah, so here I'm just showing you the products that I'm using by H and K Source, I'm not sure how to pronounce that last part. I hope it's correct, but this is a natural hair care collection brand that I found on Instagram. I will make sure I link her down below um so guys, so I'm using the hair growth oil for my scalp, I'm using the hair butter um for moisture and I'm using the refreshing, um Mist to refresh my curls okay. So first things. First, I'm going to be taking down the ponytail that I have on the top of my head. I had it in a half um up half down hairstyle. So after I take that out, I am going to be starting off first with the hair growth oil. Just putting it all over my scalp rubbing it in as I go massaging my scalp um just to really work that product in. So you will see me doing that here. Sorry, you guys! I would like to have music playing during this part of the video, because it's you know repetitive and I'm just putting the oil in my scalp but um, unfortunately I've this. I really don't know how to work. Um YouTube that much when it comes to copyright and stuff like that with music. So I'm not really sure what I can and can't use so um. Sorry for that. So one main area that I do put the hair growth oil is um, not only of course, on my scalp um throughout the perimeter of my hair, but I also put it on my edges because I experienced some hair loss um and like postpartum breakage. After having my baby about a year ago, um well, I had her about a year ago and I started to go through that postpartum hair loss and real dry brittle hair from breastfeeding. Like a couple months after I gave birth so um. That will be the main place that we put be putting a lot of the hair growth oil. Just you know, try to get that patch grown back in so all the years with the damage on that um. On my edges as well. That'S what I'm trying to get rid of and restore my hair into health. So here you see me taking the hydrating Mist. Aloe vera, I believe, is the main ingredient in it and I will be just um parting, my hair, in force, starting with as soon as it gets on that warm part of your finger. It just melts right away, so I really enjoy that about the hair butter. It'S easy to spread throughout my hair. So that's what you will see me doing now: um. I focus the butter on the length of my hair, as well as the ends of my hair, which is the oldest part um, so make sure you get those ends and take care of them. So that way you can retain length. Also, I'm not sure if you guys noticed, but I'm lightly spritzing my hair with the aloe Mist, because I don't want to saturate my hair with the water um that will defeat the purpose of me trying to just only refresh and moisturize my curls um. I don't want the curls to go away um and I don't want my natural curl pattern to come back from the braid out. So that's why you just see me lightly misting, my hair, with the spray just for a little moisture. So that way the butter can seal it in just if you were wondering so that's how I refresh I just lightly Spritz it in each section, and then I also now I know most people will opt to re-braid their hair when they're trying to refresh their hairstyle Me personally, I just felt like my hair: didn't really need it. I still had majority of the curls that I started with, so I just decided to stretch my hair instead of re-braiding it for the curls. If that makes sense, um so yeah so you'll see me. Do that momentarily so here you'll just see me um soothing, my hair or making sure soothing and smooth and soft. So that's what you see me doing here, I'm just going to Slick it back into a low ponytail so on to the banding process. I'M so sorry! If you guys hear that noise in the background, that's the people, that's mowing the lawn outside um, but let's get to the Banning method. So this is how I stretch my hair. I use um three or four depending on. However, many you need, depending on the length of your hair, I use scrunchies cloth scrunchies. So it's like it's nothing that will break my hair off. I use those to um wrap my hair go down the length of my hair as you see here, and this is how I bend my hair. This is how I stretch it without heat, without anything else is low manipulation. I just use the bands to stretch it out and I also do the banding method when I want to not only elongate my hair, naturally or without heat, but I also do it um as like a no a low manipulation hairstyle as well. So that's what I do so this is what it looks like um. As you can see my wave pattern. Curl pattern is still pretty much there for the most part, it might get a little looser. You know, as the days go on, I've been rocking this braid out, for I would say about three to four days now, so it's not that old, but yeah. So now you just see me putting on my head wrap um. You can use like a regular scarf. I just decided to use my head wrap, because this is what I would wear outside the house if I didn't want to take this off and disturb the process or if I just wanted to keep my hair wrapped up or banded up. I would just put on my head wrap and that's how I would style my hair and leave the house, so you can use a scarf or whatever you have, I'm just going to use my blush head, wrap and yeah. I'M just going to wrap it all up and you'll see how it looks when I'm done. Okay, so now that I am done wrapping up the hair, my hair is nice and moisturized refreshed um in this nice low manipulation, hairstyle styled with a head wrap. I think it looks wonderful, my hair is moisturized, it feels good so and it's well protected. So thank you guys for tuning in.
